Fig. is'h sectional View, also on line A- showing'- the machine open. Fig. l is a View of F-g. l seen fronrthe right.

' In the oonslrnctionpf our 'invention we elnploy two similarly-fo-rmed frame-plates d and d', each of which is in cross-section 'approximately a quadraatfand in lr'mgitudinal form cylindrical. l\`or1ned.' m the corresponding end of each are inwardlpextending tail-sectors .(12, which hyn perforated tongue-andgroove format-ion lwith p'n j' therethrough cored', as hereinefter described, to rollers, are thus allowed free movement with their rje- 40' the -inner sides of plates d and rl are correspending pairs of Webs c c (J2-c3, alllying in planes parallel one tothe other, as also to thosev ol' the tail-sectorsnd end disks aforesaid. The Webs c c forin'hearings' for a plus-A rality/'of roller series and are of `such sector form that when the ,frame-,plates are swung backwardly about the pivot fcthe rear-edges the corresponding wells c'ome'in contact, as shown in Fig. Mounted in* said webs and extending longitudinally between the gar-making" machine embracingen--.

The opposite adjai vcent ends of said plates have formed thereon disl'lslll, adapted to lie snuglyone againstthe other, and are eachl providedI with some what ellil'atieallyformed slots k and. k', (see Fig. -.l,) through which extendfthe'p'owerf'; ti. nstnitting 'shafts o, and which latter, sefr..

From 'Fi f. l it will be seen` that valconcaln shaped roher vL' has its point jonrnaled in a o similarly-shaped opening formed in'frn'f'eb c7', whgexeit is hl ii'position by the novel man1. ner in which the opposite end jonrnn-lcd.. 'i This is effected by forming lon or securing within the-hase of roller/i a neck c`-, which 65 carries a colla;l es, engaging. the opposite sido ofthe bearing web c2, which latter is snitahlg` beveled-'or flanged, as shown in Fig. l.' A The extreme outer.end"f-fsaid neck. is singularly formed andlooseiy lits withinA a sinxilarl'yl 71:; formed opening` in the roller h, next continu.-l -ing the series'.' Roll'erlzl also earreson itsother end a neck e, passingY through Wehe', which forms its bearing, and an angular end is here foi-ined on said neck', which entersanopexrrng 5 in a roller g.' The rollers'g have necks f-:, provided with'an angular opening, each of which reeel-ves the inner end lof a'power-Wrod o. It Willbe thus lseen that if the power-rods be rotated thef'motion imparted is `carried lbytSo .mean-sof the couplings through the entire and 1` V"are given. an equal' rotary movement.
